Use the Normalize display as a headroom
indicator to limit the maximum amount of
gain.

the amount of gain change necessary to achieve normalization or 0 dB
headroom.
5. Select the desired boost or cut with the Data Entry Control and
press ENTER. The amount of boost or cut is variable from -96 dB
to +96 dB in 1 dB steps.

Type:
• Size: sets the size of the crossfade between no gain change and gain
change. This is variable from 0 to 1/2 the sample size.
• Type: selects the type of gain curve: Linear, Exp 1, Exp 2, Exp 3.
7. If you are not satisfied with the resulting gain change, or want
to compare before and after, proceed to Digital Processing,
